Christian Pulisic’s future at Chelsea has been unclear for a while, with the American star not widely considered a starting figure for the Blues.
Pulisic was frustrated about his lack of game time when Thomas Tuchel was the head coach and he hoped matters would change when new boss Graham Potter took over.
However, there hasn’t been much of an improvement in that regard in the short time since, and he could well be looking for a move out of the club at some point in the near future.

He said: “Newcastle were obsessed with Christian Pulisic. They wanted him on loan, but not on a permanent deal. They wanted him on loan, maybe with a buy option, not mandatory. And this is why Chelsea decided to say no.”
Other than Newcastle, Italian outfit Juventus were also keen on signing Pulisic, and the player himself has had glowing reviews about Turin from national team-mate Weston McKennie in recent weeks.
It remains to be seen where this saga will end up as the player is still keen on a move and a few clubs are interested, but will have to fork out a big fee to sign him.
